I mentioned it before, but it is conceivable that it wouldn't get to the point that the military would have to decide on who the commander in chief is.
If Trump's side can create enough doubt in the results, it will be decided in court, just like in Florida. It's likely that the military would remain neutral until there is a verdict at least.
If it's a blowout loss for Trump, creating that doubt will be more difficult, but if it is a close election, I completely expect Trump to use every tool at his disposal to fight the results.
The U.S. could realistically end up with a presidential crisis similar to that of Venezuela if for example, other powerful countries choose a side and recognize opposing sides as the winner.
